✔️A nationally comprehensive spay and neuter  program would see immediate reduction, and total elimination of the problem with in a dog generation.

 

so you're saying at least  14-15 years of street mongrels roaming and wreaking havoc at will.  bad choice !

Banning monks from feeding all the dogs that hang out at the temples would be a good place to start.

It's more about banning people from dumping dogs they don't want anymore at wats.

Some these creatures love more than others.

They can smell your "Angst" and see you as prey. Have always some treats with you and make friends with them. Also talk to them. Not as you did at the bus station😂

 

Always have some doggie treats... just incase one sees you as prey  ?????......   erm...

I don’t think you should got out unaccompanied; if your nurse isn’t available, ask a friend to go with you.

And stop the poor villagers feeding the damn monks who feed the damn dogs with the food the poor villages have give them for alms. (Or is it paws?)

I  love ( my ) dogs , not people , never had better friends .

The Rottweilers keep the human scum away from me , nobody dares to come close when I take them out . I am grateful for that .

Altogether me and  my wife take care for 21 dogs in our walled in properties . All females neutered of course .

 

 

 

 

We rescue mistreated and tortured dogs just like this one :

 

 

 

He is now healthy , but he is so afraid of people that even me , after 3 years that we take care for him , cannot come near him .

 

People who mistreat and torture dogs , are no humans , they are humons ,

Human monsters ... to hell with them .

Dogs know who is a good person , people don't .

Too many dog owners have no clue about their dog's needs.  They give them food and water but little attention otherwise.  In the mubaan where we rented, I used to walk by so many houses with dogs that are starving for attention.  Their owners consider them solely as livestock that alert them when anyone approaches their property.

 

I found early on that they are indeed a kind of working animal, especially in rural areas. They're actually doing their job. It ain't the mutts' fault.

As a fellow PTSD sufferer, I urge the OP to spend some around dogs in an ultra chill vibe.

 

This post is the opposite of self care.

 

Valid point - Dogs definitely have their place and that place is in society....  

Its the dangerous and stray dogs that can be an issue - its this issue which needs a resolved in Thailand.

I would prefer no dogs at all, people who own them are needy types or ones who want something to dominate, then there are the creepy women who have sex with them. All dogs bite eventually and all any of them want is food, pests the lot of them even if only for the barking. Thais make particularly bad owners some never let dogs out at all leaving them at home all day while they are at work. When it comes to millions of half dead soi dogs the kindest thing would be not to feed them, but to finish them off. Sentimentality and religion does not stop widespread animal cruelty here, there is another reason why dogs, even filthy diseased soi dogs are a protected species, most know what that is. Soi Dog foundation going for 20 year have only slightly reduced the population growth.

An often said sentiment- I love my dogs more than humans, weird. Dogs are not your friend, stop feeding then see how friendly they are.

Who are you to tell me and others what to do and work with? Do your blessed duty if you wish. As you pointed out in your post, your have your dogs fenced, but others have not. See, your project is failing. :-)

I have a suggestion for you.  Go to the up upper right-hand corner, click on your name, click on "Ignored Users", and place my name in there.  Viola!  Problem solved!

But other than that?  This is an open forum, not an echo-chamber.   We all have our own views an opinions.  I am making sound suggestions - not just ranting.  You can chose to consider the suggestions or reject them.  Fine with me either way.  Up to you.

The reality is that illegal to go around killing dogs.  And I don't see any future in what's left of my life to where the Thailand government will ever cull dogs like they do in the West.  Farangs who are at least partially assimilated into Thai society should understand that.
 
So, for those who are really concerned about the out-of-control dog problem?  Be part of the solution!  And I've offered solid advice about how to proceed that is good for the dogs and good for society.  And that advice is to work with others within your community to spay and neuter the dogs that you can in the community. 

And with that, have a wonderful day!    Woof Woof!

The thing Buddhism gets wrong about the dogs is that just ignoring them is not compassion. Doing nothing could be considered abusive and is harming a suffering animal. Neutering them could help unborn dogs not suffer, but the existing dog is still suffering.

How you know this? When have you ever been a vermin? 😂😂😂. My dog is a happy dog....unless he might meet you?🥳🥳🥳.

But in some respect you're right. There are indeed too many stray dogs. Sometimes as a dangerous rat pack. There was a plan a few years ago. Ownership and responsibility combined with a small tax. The ownerless dogs could have gone to the dogs. However, we're in Thailand.... Have a good evening🙏

Absolutely agree Stoner,  they are pests, vermin,  and downright dangerous for kids and old people.

 

where is Thai mentality ?

don't they see it as a problem ?     they just wait for the next dog attack victim at the hospital ?

 

are they really so uneducated that they cannot see the dogs are a big problem in Soi's and Villages.

 

Not educated. Just Buddhists.🙏

In Buddhism dogs are a symbol of wisdom and compassion. They also might be the reincarnation of someone's grandma, so goes the thinking

here. Clearly a compassionate way of reducing the numbers and limiting strays is needed but you'll never eradicate them all.

The compassionate way IMO  is to reduce their numbers through attrition. 

Sterilization will reduce the birth rate to that below replacement, consequently their numbers will decline to manageable levels. ,

SO now the OP meets a gang of Australians, they are banging him up.

Another PTSD develops and he will say all Aussies dead !?

Though it is happening in Australia with refugees, they are on islands, in detention centers and Aussies let them just die.

Government with PTSD for refugees?
